    I finally got around to cleaning this girl up for sale and had a couple more questions.
    Should i sell her as is or just sell the head?
    any additional thoughts on wig? pic showing inside.

    I think I would sell the head separately, and list the body too, linking them to each other.

    Make sure there are no hairlines in the head. To best see, place a flashlight inside the head.......they'll show if they are there.

    She passed with no cracks! I decided to keep her together. I listed her this morning for a whopping 3 times what I paid. So far four bids and four bidders. I really wanted to get her to somebody that will repair her more than making a killing on the sale.

    I found your listing..........watching...........:cat:

    Make sure you over wrap that head in bubble wrap.

    Body too, but the head is most fragile.

    Best of luck!

    One more thing Mikey...............

    When you pack the doll, place the head down. This helps prevent the eyes from falling back into the head.

    Posting this on behalf of an IG lady— any ID possible on this doll? The clothes are Barbie apparently. Any help appreciated as always x

    Oh goodness... well it's a clone, impossible to tell which one without the packaging as a lot of them look the same. An early 60s one if that's any help xxx

    Now I've woken up a bit and had a better look, she could very well be one of the PMA dolls, like Debbie. A lot of them look the same and are name-engineered as well...it's not an exact science and there were hundreds of similar looking girls xxx
